Introduction to 3D images & 3D movies

3D photos and 3D movies allow you to see rich 3D world - not a flat one as with standard 2D photos and 2D videos. Some parts of 3D pictures are more closely, other are farther. Some even can "go out of the screen". And what is most important - to take a 3D photo or to record a 3D movie is very easy.

3D photos, 3D video, 3D games etc. can be watched in a few ways. And what is probably the most often used one? The cyan/red glasses. You can buy them together with membership of 3DJournal club.
